One of the most anticipated fights at UFC Liverpool was between Neil Magny and Craig White. Magny did not disappoint spectators at the event and knocked out White in the first round. With the victory, the welterweight asked to fight Kamaru Usman.
“He has proven to be a great fighter so far. He's in the top five now, so it makes sense to want to call out a guy who has truly proven himself time and time again rather than someone else. So if this ends, I'll take the fight. If not, we’ll see what happens,” said Magny about Usman.

Kamaru is coming off a victory over Damian Maia at UFC Chile less than 10 days ago. With the triumph Usman moved up to fifth place in the category ranking. Even with the victory, Magny is ninth in the welterweight division.
Neil believes that Usman is a strong opponent, but that he can come up with a strategy to beat him at any time.
“This is one of the things that makes me a good fighter, I am able to adapt to things as they come. Usman has shown a lot of things in the past. If he wants to keep him standing, I can find a way to beat him standing. If he wants to fight, I'll find a way to beat him. If he goes to the ground, I will find a way to find a submission or reverse it and be on top and finish the fight,” Magny explained.
